Statute overview

About this statute

Organizations are liable to third parties for damages caused by volunteers taking part in their programs. Disputes between volunteers and organizations in volunteer activities are to be resolved by the competent court under procedural rules. Volunteers’ collaboration in certain public bodies must follow this law and is preferably carried out through agreements with private nonprofit entities. La Administración General del Estado debe fomentar apoyo técnico, formación, información y campañas de divulgación y reconocimiento sobre el voluntariado. Los voluntarios pueden obtener bonificaciones, reducciones u otros beneficios en transporte público estatal, entradas a museos estatales y otros beneficios que se establezcan reglamentariamente.
